The enlightenment has set
A purple son
Hanging in the west
Shadow all we have left
Crept down
Capital steps
Like the fractures in the steel
And the axel of the wheel
Or the rivets in
My bones
Not strong enough
To hold
There was a time
In this nation of mine
For just slaughtered with light
We burned with flight
In the shallows of your mind
A thought is rising like the tide
A constitution, all we have left
All's like a relic
To the depths
And like the fractures in the steel
And the axle of the wheel
From my patriotic chest
The trees have spread
There was a time
In this nation of mine
For just slaughtered with light
We burned
We burned
There was a time
In this nation of mine
For just slaughtered with light
There was
There was
There was
A time
